Application filed. December 30,1920. Serial No. 157,990.

The invention aims'to provide a new and improved bed cover of such formation as to effectively close the space between the necks of the occupants, which exists when using ordinary bed covers. This space, permits a great deal' of cold air-*to enter thebed and permits the warmth from the bod to escape so that an excessive number an wei ht of bed clothes are necessary, whereas by iosing the space, the occupants can keep warmer with less covering.

- With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject matter hereinafter described and claimed, the description 5 being supplemented by the accompanying drawing.

Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the use of the invention. p v

Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the covering showmg more clearly the manner of positioning the same for use.

Fig. 3 is a plan view of the cover laid fiat.

Fig. 4 is another perspective showing the cover in use and illustrating the manner in which it closes the opening which would otherwise exist between the necks of the bed occupants.

' The cover may be a quilt, comforter,

blanket, spread or the like and may be 80 formed from any desired material or materials. Thiscover embodies a relatively small ortion 5 upon which the shoulders of the od occupants lie, a comparatively large portion 6 to cover the occupants bodies and a 85 centrally disposed neck portion 7 connecting the upper end of the portion 6 with the upper edge of the portion 5, said portion 7 beng adapted to pass downwardly around the inner or adjacent shoulders of the occupants, as clearly shown in Figs. 1 and 4. Thus, this portion 7 effectively prevents entrance of cold air between the two occupants. The

' corner portions 8 of the body-covering por-' for childrens beds or the beds of adults, and 6 in either case, not only will it effectively ex- -olude cold air and retain warmth, but will .prevent the occupants from kicking the cover from them.

As excellent results have been obtained from the general proportion herein shown, such proportion is preferably followed. However, within the scope of the inventionasclaimed,'variations may be made.

I claim 1. A double bed cover comprising a portion upon which the shoulders of two bed occupants may rest, a second portion to cover the occupants bodies, and a narrow centrally disposed neck portion joining the two afore-' said portions and adapted to pass' around the adjacent shoulders of the occupants.

2. A structure as specified in claim 1; the upper corners of the body-covering portion bein free of connection with the first named portion, permittingthem to be tucked under the remote shoulders of the occupants.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto aflixed my signature.
